JavaFX Script makes it easy for developers to quickly develop high-quality UI-intensive applications very quickly. As JavaFX Script: Dynamic Java Scripting for Rich Internet/Client-side Applications demonstrates, developers can develop Rich Internet Applications and rich client-side user interfaces quickly and easily with this potential replacement for Ajax and perhaps even ActionScript and other scripting found in Flash. This firstPress book on JavaFX Scriptcovers the following topics:
- The fundamentals of the JavaFX suite of technologies and the foundations of JavaFX Script and available tools
- How to create a Wordsearch application
- How to augment and enhance the Wordsearch application after learning more advanced JavaFX Script features such as classes, objects, UI components, and constructs.
What you’ll learn
- Understand the JavaFX family and JavaFX Script and its relationship to the Java/Java SE 6 platform.
- Set up a JavaFX Script development and execution environment culminating in a Hello JFX application.
- Create a Wordsearch application and explore important JavaFX Script concepts by doing so.
- Survey the JavaFX UI Components including the commonly used ones that go into further building and enhancement of the Wordsearch application frame and menu structure.
- Use more advanced JavaFX Script language constructs for extending the Wordsearch application.
- Build JavaFX classes and objects, build the data model for the WordSearch application, and run the data model with a tester program.
- Develop the view for the Wordsearch application using a data model such as bind as well as drawing on a canvas.
- Explore more JavaFX Script concepts and possible IDE tie-ins to NetBeans, Eclipse, etc.

What User Say About The Book:
Read the book last night: It was much better than I expected - normally texts that appear less than 6 months after the product announcement are rushed and full of errors. I found this one to be good quality, concise, and would make me consider using JavaFX (I was buying the book to evaluate the language for a future project).
My main disappointment is not to do with the book itself, but the reason I bought the book; I was looking for a solution to package up a Java App, then deploy it over the web (like a modern version of a Java Applet, but using Java Web Start to overcome it's drawbacks). For this , it would have been nice to have a section on Deployment (as part of an Enterprise app).
However, this was clearly stated to be a JavaFX book so this is a 'nice to have request' rather than a complaint!
